I was doing some online window shopping, and decided to visit one of my favorite sites to peruse, Humble Chic NY. Their site has the perfect mix of affordable and trendy finds. Every time I visit I always see a hand full of goodies that I want to scoop up. So today I am sharing a few items that caught my eye.

This one is strictly for the ladies who want to jazz up their feminine nest. Today I am focusing on adding a few decorative pieces that will help make your bathroom a glamorous retreat. Some of the home decor suggestions would seem out of place for a bathroom, but that is what makes them so perfect. These easy tips will make your bathroom unique. The fun part about these simple changes is that you can achieve a whole new look without construction or a full-blown renovation.Easy Changes & Tips- Rethink your lighting.

A couple of weeks ago I received a request from one of my blog followers asking me to style a fashion set showing clothing options for an hourglass figure - and the only stipulation was that the set must feature flat shoes. I decided to tackle this request by featuring a day to night outfit where I am working with the same basic pieces (that highlight a hourglass figure curves) and changing out the accessories.

For the evening outfit I created an ensemble that could be worn when going out for drinks, dinner, or clubbing.Hourglass Figure Styling Tips:- Make sure to pick pieces that fit, but are not overly tight. Close fitting clothes highlight a hourglass figure.- Baggy or shapeless clothing are a huge no-no!- Remember to always emphasize your waist.- If you wear flats pick a pair with a pointy toe.

In my previous post I styled a fashion set featuring a black Kenzo dress that received a lot of attention. Some of my readers have requested an alternative cocktail style dress that was less expensive. So I have compiled a list of six of my favorite black cocktail dresses for Fall 2014. All of these fabulous finds are under $100, so they will not break your budget.

Before I determine what I need and want to buy to update my wardrobe each season I try to compile ideas and inspiration from several sources. This fall I have really been inspired by art, urban cities, and fantastic prints.When I was perusing Pinterest I came across this cool illustration, "New York" by Peter Donnelly. I was inspired by the retro Mad Men depiction of the frenzy of the city at night, and decided to use it as today's inspiration for the outfit of the day.

Usually I do not gravitate towards the color pink, especially when it comes to decorating a home. When I came across this elegant living room by Amy Howard I started to reconsider. I always considered a pale or cotton candy pink as a juvenile hue, but when paired with accents of black and gold it gives off a more sophisticated vibe.
